And if I lost the map

If I lost it all

Or fell into the trap

Then she'd call

'When you're tired of racing

And you find you never left the start

Come on baby

Don't let it break your heart'



Though heavily we bled

Still on we crawl

Try to catch a cannonball

And a slowly burning tide

Through my veins is flowing

From my shipwreck I heard her call



She said 'When you're tired of aiming your arrows

Still you never hit the mark

Even in your rains and shadows

Still we're never going to part

Come on baby

Don't let it break your heart

Oh oh oh oh oh

Don't let it break your heart

Oh oh oh oh oh

Don't let it break your heart



Don't let it break your heart'
